These nightstands were an ordinary thrift store find until they caught my eye. I added just about everything you see on them here, doors, hardware, legs, paint, and wax. Let me show you how I did it.
BEFORE
I turned them upside down and added new curvy front kicks and install legs.
I glued these reclaimed appliques to the drawer fronts.
I install the drawer handles and got to painting
them in a soft blue ASCP mix.
I also added a small applique to the
kick plates in the bottom front.
I built and installed doors for each cabinet.
******************************************
I finished the tops in white.
I dry brushed white over the high spots and did a white wax.

I shared how to color your wax to create
this look in an earlier article.
